Enrol in a curated learning path. Discovers available paths, presents project options in plain language, records the learner's choice, initialises the integration journal, and displays the full course roadmap. Run once at the start of the path — not at the start of each course. Distinguishes enrolment (path level, one-time) from starting a course (delegates to start-course).
Scaffold a new course directory from the COURSE.md schema. Creates the directory structure, populates COURSE.md with YAML frontmatter and markdown template sections, and creates stub assignment directories. Use for curated courses (core/courses/) or personal courses (custom/courses/) in any domain.
Create or update the global learner profile. Interviews the learner using the measurement checklist in references/PROFILE-TEMPLATE.md and writes the structured result to profile/PROFILE.md. Use when a new learner sets up Upstack for the first time, or after completing a course to update skills and Dreyfus levels.
Display current completion state for one or all active courses. Runs collect-progress.js to parse journals and extract completion percentages with git timestamps. Use when the learner asks about their progress or at the start of a session.
Run the reasoning review gate for a completed assignment. Asks 2-3 Reasoning Review Prompts from COURSE.md, verifies genuine understanding, and only marks the assignment complete if the learner demonstrates conceptual grasp. Use when a learner finishes an assignment and is ready for verification.
Initialise a learning session. Checks for an existing journal in progress/<course-slug>/journal.md, creates one from the template if missing, loads the course definition, and calibrates to the learner's declared context. Use when starting a new course or resuming after a break.
